Donald Trump has said he will speak to Sir Keir Starmer this weekend about his plans to sue the BBC for the way it edited footage of one of his speeches. The corporation has apologised, but is refusing to pay him compensation. Mr Trump insists he has an "obligation" to press ahead with legal action, saying he is seeking up to five billion dollars. In other news, a leading refugee charity has said the government's plan to allow people granted asylum to stay in the UK only temporarily will not deter small boat crossings.
